Europe prepares for sea level rise and heat

Researchers from the BASE project explore various aspects of climate change in local cases across Europe. Many of the cases are about preparing for extreme events. The Finnish case is from the river Kalajoki. In Germany the Baltic coastal resort of Timmendorfer Strand has been studied and Jenny Tröltzsch of Ecologic Institute underlines the importance of local participation. The Portuguese cases include the area of Cascais that is being analysed by researchers from Lisbon university. Gil Penha-Lopes stresses the importance of health aspects.
